MASSIVE EDIT: So sorry for causing problems and neglecting the rules. The fic in its entirety is now linked from my livejournal. And Warning (to possible young readers): Though it is false as a plot device (and the crux of the entire fic), there is a conspicuous mention of a SLASH pairing--that is, a romance between two of the same gender (how young are we worried about? should I bother with the definition, or would they probably know Internet lingo?) Idly Speaking About the Affairs of Othersgreedyslayer.livejournal.com/145041.htmlBTW, where are the rules listed? I've been looking, and can't find them so far.

Oh I loved that xD Booster is so lovable in there, Mira is all mean, Nos is cluelessly unimpressed and XR... daw xD Poor XR <3 I could see them talking like that together if they were forced into a conversation like that ^^
If this was on dA or ff.net I'd fav it immediately xD

Okay, I hate to be the bad cop, but anything slashy is not permitted to be posted here as this IS a kid's show- this one being mild, I'll allow a link to it from another site provided there are warnings.

Wow, really? Even if it's not actual slash? I mean, they weren't really doing anything, it was only mockery...

Well, I'm sorry, but that's the rules. It's clearly stated in the forum rules, along with 'no swearing'. -ahem-

o-o it's about a tabloid reporting a relationship between two guy robots... XD Yes, but it's a lie. An untruth. No real slash relationship I didn't think of this as slash, reading it, and I'm a very anti-slash guy. Also, I move for a more Barbossan view of the rules- "They're more like guidelines, miss." (/Pirates)

I thought the exact same thing as Robbie. I mean, I didn't consider this as actual slash since it wasn't really true in the first place. Which is why I thought I'd misread something in the rules, so I just reread them to be on the safe side. ^^;;
LAWL, BARBOSSA. 8DDDDD

GUYS. What do you think a five-year-old is going to think reading this? This is a KID'S SHOW.
Also, I hate to do this because I feel like a Nazi but I'm the King of Town, and I can banhammer you all. The rule is there and I'm choosing to enforce it, now stop or I'll lock this and the author will need to make a new thread.

Hmm... good point. A little kid would be scarred for life. Didn't think of it that way. ^^'' Bad me.

Thanks to all the comments on the fic and glad you enjoyed it/made you laugh. ^____^ When I saw how many comments were listed after one day of putting up the fic, I jokingly wondered if a fight had broke out...which kinda happened. ^^; SUPER SORRY. (Can anyone guess who I just quoted? Maybe too obscure--but he's an awesome character, nonetheless...) Kila, thank you for handling the problem with a level head. I have linked the story to another site, with some warnings listed above the link. And I've been looking for the list of rules--anyone mind directing me to them, please? I must be really underestimating kids' access to this forum, and just kids in general today...but, may I respectfully question? The less Disney does with the show (i.e. criminal absence of DVD collections), new generations get less access to the show itself, so would they even actively look for this forum? But more importantly: for less restricted materials, we'll just continue linking off-site, or could there be a sub-forum created for mature audiences only? Which makes me reflect on why even bother with aging up kid's show material--I can only say, I get attached to the characters, and can't help twisting them around to my older perspective. Still, that probably should be restricted to myself and others of comparable age--thus, maybe a sub-forum locked to certain members; I've seen something like that in another forum, but I really don't know the details with putting that up, so maybe it's not even feasible in the first place. P.S. Barbossa reference FTW.
